Questions to ask before starting an organization
A one-page checklist from Pillar Nonprofit Network in London, Ontario, for people thinking of starting a nonprofit. It asks whether someone already does the work, which structure fits, whether the need is lasting, whether others will help, whether money can be found and whether founders will hand control to a board. It then outlines the steps for incorporation and charitable status in Canada and points to a longer Imagine Canada guide.

How to set up a charity (CC21a)
Online guidance from the regulator for people thinking of starting a charity in England or Wales. It works through 7 steps: decide if a charity is the right option, set its purpose, choose a structure, write a governing document, choose a name, find trustees and fund the work. The legal detail is English, but founders elsewhere use the sequence as a checklist for their own start-up decisions.
